  • Special Instructions appear on blue buttons in the Modifiers section.

  • Example:
    Restaurants convey special instructions to kitchen staff regarding common customer allergies through the use of Special Instructions. For example:  Gluten Allergy, Peanut Allergy, Vegan

  • Tip! Open modifier appears by default with special modifiers, giving merchants the ability to create special instructions on the fly! Simply tap Open modifier and type a message to send to the kitchen.  Price can be added to an open modifier as well.
